Enrollment requirements

Plan the electronic workflow
- Run a 270/271 eligibility check before visits or billing when coverage information is needed.
- Complete this payer's enrollment before sending 837P claims or expecting ERA 835 files in Hero EMR.
- If eligibility data is unavailable or unclear, use the payer's approved manual verification process and document the result.
- For claim status, use a payer-supported process outside Hero EMR because 276/277 is not available.
- Use ERA 835 for remittance details after enrollment, but plan a separate process for funds transfer because EFT is not supported.
Common questions
Can I check this payer's eligibility electronically?
Yes. Hero EMR supports electronic eligibility and benefits inquiries using 270/271, available without payer enrollment.
Can I submit professional claims electronically to this payer?
Yes, but 837P submission requires payer enrollment first. Complete the required enrollment paperwork before sending professional claims through Hero EMR.
Does this payer support electronic remittance advice?
Yes, ERA 835 is supported after payer enrollment. EFT is not supported, so electronic remittance does not include an automated funds transfer.
Can Hero EMR check claim status or send institutional and dental claims?
No. Claim status (276/277), institutional claims (837I), and dental claims (837D) are not available for this payer in Hero EMR.
